Hello from NRH

[Shawn N]

I have been looking for other TR owners in the North Richland Hills, HEB and Ft Worth area. I have not seen very many TR's locally and would like to track down a couple of TR buddies. I have a 500hp white W-02 87 T known as the ghost around here lol. I am a certified grease monkey with over 15 years of experience on 86/87 intercooled and 84/85 non intercooled TR's.

There's a bunch if us in DFW, I'm in Carrollton myself. We've got guys in Fort Worth, down to Waxahachie and Granbury, and up through Plano.

We will be at Redline Raceway this Saturday if you want to swing by and meet some of the regulars!

And while it's not DFW, I'm in Hillsboro and there are even more from Waco south.

Yeah Charlie seems there is quite a few TR's from Austin to Houston. I looked for a year before I bought this T and most cars for sale were in that area with several in Dallas. Crazy that all the Dallas cars had T-tops and or digital dashes, my mortal TR enemy. I ended up in Blanchard, OK for this one. My wife chewed my ass all the way up there lol! I hung out with Randy (Boost N) for a few hours on Sunday. His T is the biggest sleeper I've ever seen. He got a real kick out this crazy rolling out of control almost crashed burn out I did.

 

[BOOST N]

We will meet again for sure.
I don't know if I can top your grand finally though

Well Mike I work at the DFW UPS hub from 12 to 5pm on Saturdays so it would be hard for me to do it unless it's a little later in the evening. I do like to hang out with other TR owners since every car tends to be a learning experience and most people need some help with their cars. I just never see any TR's around here anymore or they are hiding behind closed doors. I'm free on Sat or Mon evening if you want to meet up.

 

[Shawn N]

That was insane Randy. I hope the rice burners did not see it or tape it!

 

[BOOST N]

I don't plan on getting to Redline until 7

I going to try to head to Hillsboro to have Charlie reseal my front timing cover on Sat if I can get a oil pan gasket by then. Those rope seals don't care for 20lbs of boost lol! I might be good the Sat after though.

I can see if the local parts places here have it if you want Shawn. If they don't I've got a commercial account at oriellys that should save some $ if you want.

Welcome Shawn N., you can check out the local Buick club at www.lspbcforums.net as well. We'll be at Redline till about Midnight that may give you enough of time to make it out?

 

[Shawn N]

I am going to try to make it next Sat. This oil leak needs to fixed first (daily driver).

 

[Major Nutz]

Shawn, glad to see you on here. I've seen you a couple of times on Rufe Snow. I work for the City of NRH so I'm out and about all the time.
Mike

 

[Shawn N]

Yeah I'm the lonely TR around here. The only other TR I know of is off of Eden on one of the courts. There was a WE-4 at the apartments on Browning but the owner moved or sold it. If you see me Mike flag me down!
